This includes, but is not limited to :
- commandline editing and history.
- local and remote filename completion.
- a new progress display.
- the ability to access files using either the ftp or http protocols,

nothing good except of opening a can of (potential or real) security

This makes configuration of mfs /tmp on diskless clients more intuitive
for people like me, that have used this feature on NetBSD and SunOS.
Using the -T option and /dev/null, while already supported,
